The list does not cover the whole range of services.</h5><h4><strong>Measuring the quality of air as specified by Act No. 201/2012 Coll., Air Protection Act</strong></h4><p>We measure the concentrations of the following pollutants in the atmosphere, as listed in Act No. 201/2012 Coll., authorized by the Ministry of the Environment: nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, tropospheric ozone, benzene, solid particles PM10 and PM2.5, arsen, cadmium, nickel, lead and benzo[a]pyrene. Measuring other pollutants may be added.</p><p>We can use air quality measuring principles in other locations, for example in city parks. Air quality information may help you to plan, develop and maintain these important green spaces in cities.</p><h4><strong>Assessment of environmental contamination</strong></h4><p>We offer complex evaluation of environmental contamination at a specifical location, as well as individual elements of the environment. We use our own laboratories, equipped with top instruments, for taking environmental samples and their processing and preparation for chemical and toxicological analyses. Our lab then provides the resulting qualitative and quantitative determination from a wide range of organic and inorganic substances, including their trace and ultra-trace concentrations.</p><ul><li>Evaluation of <strong>air contamination</strong></li><li>Assessment of <strong>soil contamination</strong></li><li>Assessment of <strong>building materials, secondary materials and waste</strong></li><li>Assessment of <strong>water contamination</strong></li></ul><h4><strong>Measuring the emissions of vehicles in real traffic</strong></h4><p>Measuring the emissions of vehicles in real traffic contains: the continuous measuring of concentrations of gaseous emissions of O<sub>2</sub>, CO, CO<sub>2</sub>, HC and NO<sub>x</sub>, isokinetic sampling of solid particles, isokinetic sampling of gases, including unlimited pollutants, placed into containers for previously non-specified detailed laboratory analysis of gas emissions, sampling for two different driving regimes, measuring the flow of exhaust gases, measuring the pressure and temperature of exhaust gases. Everything is done using a devicce developed by the Transport Research Centre and the company SEKO spol. s r.o.</p><h4><strong>The issues of fuels and lubricants</strong></h4><ul><li>Specification of the interpretation of emission measuring results,</li><li>Substantiation of the anomalies in emission characteristics of vehicles,</li><li>Influence on the emission factors of vehicles,</li><li>Specification of inputs for emissions modelling (AP development scenario),</li><li>The impact of alternative fuels on the degradation of motor oil,</li><li>Analysis of the technical condition of vehicles based on motor oil.</li></ul><h4><strong>Traffic-caused emissions balance calculations</strong></h4><p>Our services involve balancing emissions of mobile sources from road traffic (including emissions of solid pollutants from abrasions and VOC emissions from evaporation from the fuel systems of petrol vehicles), railway, air and water traffic, as well as emissions from off-road sources (agricultural, forrest and construction vehicles, military vehicles, plant care etc.).</p><h4><strong>Modelling traffic emissions and the contribution of traffic to imission concentrations</strong></h4><p>The offer involves modelling the flow of emissions from traffic at a specific location and the creation of dispersion studies (modelling the contribution of traffic to the imission concentrations). The input for these modellings is a multi-modal traffic figure. If the client does not have a traffic model available, its creation may be a part of the offer.</p><h4><strong>Modelling the traffic imission concentrations (dispersion study)</strong></h4><p>We conduct the calculation of imission concentrations for both gaseous and solid pollutants from traffic in accordance with the SYMOS'97 directive. Primarily, when substances are evaluated, the limits of which are given by the Air Protection Act No. 201/2012 Coll. When required, other pollutants may be modelled, as well.</p><p><strong>And more...</strong></p>
